Description
Richard Allen's defense attorneys are citing testimony from the state's witnesses as they argue to allow their Odinism theory in the Delphi murders trial. Abby Williams and Libby German were found murdered on Feb. 14, 2017. The defense team believes that the crime scene shows clear signs of ritual murder that point to a branch of Norse paganism called Odinism. The state has argued that investigators dismissed that theory and successfully argued for special judge Frances Gull to block the defense from telling the jury about their alternative killer theory. In the new filing on 8:50 a.m. on Oct. 23, the defense is asking again permission to tell the jury about the theory.
